NFL Week 7 Fantasy, Who Should You Start? Quaterbacks

NFL Quarterbacks To Start

Deshaun Watson

The Rookie has been playing outstanding as he had three touchdowns in Sunday’s game against the Browns. Watson is in the race for ROY with Kareem Hunt and I would for sure start him.

Marcus Mariota

Marcus Mariota and the Titans face the Browns, whose defense hasnt been so good, which means Mariota will have his chance to bounce back from his injury and be able to put up some numbers.

Carson Wentz

Carson has been playing like an MVP candidate and I wouldn’t be surprised if he Keeps this up. As a fantasy owner, I would be happy to start him.

Top 10 NFL Teams- Week 7 NFL Power Rankings

1- Philadelphia Eagles

The Eagles have been one of the top teams the past few weeks and after beating the Panthers, they look like the top spot to me.

2- Kansas City Chiefs

The Chiefs took their first loss against the Steelers this past week but I believe they will bounce back this week.

3- Pittsburgh Steelers

The Steelers have been a little inconsistent this year, but after they beat the number one offense in the NFL, I think they deserve to be at least a top 5 team.

4- Carolina Panthers

The Panthers stayed close to the Eagles but couldn’t beat them as Cam Newton Struggled with his passing.

5-Minnesota Vikings

This may be a little high for Minnesota, but although they beat the Packers without Rodgers, the Vikings still played pretty well.

6- New England Patriots

The Patriots beat the Jets, who have been better than everybody thought, in a very close game. Tom Brady lead them to a 24-17 win to make them 4-2.

7- Los Angeles Rams

The Rams may be serious in their new city, as they have gone 4-2. At first, I doubted them but now I have some confidence them.

8-Green Bay Packers

The Packers chances to make the playoffs have gone down as they lost starting QB, Aaron Rodgers due to an Injury. The Packers are now in the hands of Brett Hundley.

9- Seattle Seahawks

Bye.

10-New Orleans Saints

The Saints beat my Lions in a pretty high scoring game. They Scored 52 points but almost allowed a Lions comeback. I’m not sure if the Saints are actually “good” yet but well see after this weeks game.

Comment what you think about my Power Rankings!

6 Minutes Into The Season, Gordon Hayword Suffers A Leg Injury

Haywards Season Could Be Over

Tonight was the NBA’s opening night and 6 minutes into the game, there was a serious injury. Gordon Hayward suffered a broken ankle in a very awkward fall.

The video was very graphic and disturbing to watch, so I’m not going to post it, but here is a reaction from a fan at the Cavs-Celtics game, who witnessed it live.

This is a serious injury for the Celtics and could affect how they play without their starting all-star forward Gordon Hayword. My thoughts and prayers go out to him.

Here are some tweets from throughout the NBA sending Hayword prayers

Teddy Bridgewater Is Clear To Practice

A day after the Vikings beat the Packers, the Vikings have announced starting quarterback, Teddy Bridgewater is eligible to start practicing in practice. Bridgewater has been injured for quite a while now, with a seriously injured knee that happened over a year ago.

In 2015, when Bridgewater started all 16 games, he lead the Vikings to an 11-5 and season and brought them to the playoffs. Since then, they haven’t been as successful.

Teddy Bridgewater tweeted “thank you” after being cleared to partcipate.

Can The Packer Still Win The NFC North Without Rodgers?

  The Packers announced Aaron Rodgers could possibly be out the rest of the season

In Sunday’s game against the Vikings, Packers QB, Aaron Rodgers went down with a broken right collarbone.

Rodgers was replaced by Brett Hundley, who couldn’t finish the game, as the Packers lost 23-10.

The Packers are one of the best teams in the NFL and coming to week 6 the packers were in my top 5 in NFL  power rankings.  The Packers will have to rely more on running and hand the ball more to running back, Ty Montgomery who hasn’t also dealt with injuries throughout this season.  Aaron Rodgers has been pretty durable throughout his career, with Only one major injury in 2013 when he also had a collarbone injury.

 

Can The Packer Still Win The NFC North Without Rodgers?

Yes… but with the NFC North being kind of a tough division, they may want to consider signing another quarterback, as they have much of a less chance of winning the division without their star QB.

The Packers could sign Colin Kaepernick to fill their QB needs for the rest of the season but they may not due to the anthem protest. Comment Below about what you think the Packers should do!
